On September 20, 2024, Tarek Muhammad delivered a Friday sermon at the Islamic Center of South Bay-LA, which was shared on ICSB LA's YouTube channel. During his address, he labeled Zionists as "prophet killers" and accused them of attempting to seize the Al-Aqsa Mosque through “fake history” and falsehoods. Muhammad claimed that Zionists aspire to establish an international government or “superpower” that would dominate the world. He asserted that they seek to control global systems through finance, media, and the promotion of homosexuality and pornography, particularly via Hollywood. Additionally, he alleged that Zionists control the American political system by buying off politicians.
Tarek Muhammad: "Israel, the Israelites, are different than the Jews. The religion came with who? With Moses.
[...]
"Do we have any problems with the Jews? No. Do we have a problem with the Israelites? No. So what do we have a problem with then? We have a problem with a nationalist movement, they call it Zionism. They tried to build a country in our body.
[...]
"Allah is telling them; 'You are not allowed to have a country, because you do not fulfil the promise, you do not teach people the Scriptures.'
[...]
"You are rejecting the prophets, killing the prophets – [they] changed the word of Allah all the time.
[...]
"With a lie, with fake history, they tried to take the land and Al-Aqsa from our sons.
[...]
"So Israel right now – or what they call Israel right now – is taking the same position of arrogance upon the land. They are trying to be ruling the land. They are targeted at making an international government – [it will not be] America, Russia, China – no anybody, but the government of Israel. They want to be the only rulers [of the world].
[...]
"They are trying now to get the power [to become] the superpower in the land. Through the money, the wealth, the banks – arrogance upon the land. The interest system – it is arrogance upon the land and corrupting the land. Controlling the media... The media right now is the most arrogant upon the land and corrupting the land.
[...]
"They want to spread homosexuality widely.
[...]
"Spreading pornography, sexual movies, all the stuff... Controlling Hollywood and anything...
[...]
"In politics, everything right now in the United States of America, and I don’t want to say all the words... By Allah, everything has been bought, our president isn’t ashamed to say; 'I am a Zionist.'
[...]
"Look at what these people are doing to us and the world. They tried to corrupt everything on every level. Every politician in the United States right now – except a few spared by Allah – they get bought by the Zionists."
